Welcome to the Nepal-Lipi-Online, and Heartiest Greetings on the occasion of the Auspicious Happy ! New Year of Nepal Samvat (Era) 1135. We are glad to announce that our online publication completes its 4th year and turns to its 5 th year online publishing , that started from a very small beginning. Thanks to voluntary contribution of articles by experts, editing, ƺ proofreading, typing by other worthy members, we , , , ु, have continued this far. Here we announce a change ƺ in our team that Mr. Naresh Shakya, who had helped us as our chief editor had to leave us as he has look after his own business from this year. We express our heartful gratitude for his great help to us. Until we appoint a new chief editor, I assume the responsibility for a while. Nepal Samvat New Year and Nepal Bhasa were the achievemnts of those leaders, activists and , supporters in Nepal. But we have not seen a system developed to record all the past contributions by these great people. For example, Nepal Lipi encoding meeting held in Kathmandu this October is an example. We find less information was shared with ु people interested hence the participation was very ” limited. The meeting too did not pass on the update () of the progress of encoding Nepal Lipi in the Unicode. As a small contribution, we have included a update report of this great task of encoding Nepal Lipi. We shall be grateful to those who will contribute to build record keeping with information they have in this regard. Thank you! ! - Suwarn Vajracharya - ल And the family of the Nepal-lipi-online and Nepal Study Center Japan (NSCJ).

  • Bhaktapur, Nepal's Cow Procession and the Improvisation of Tradition
    FORGING SPACE: BHAKTAPUR, NEPAL’S COW PROCESSION AND THE IMPROVISATION OF TRADITION By: GREGORY PRICE GRIEVE Grieve, Gregory P. ―Forging a Mandalic Space: Bhaktapur, Nepal‘s Cow Procession and the Improvisation of Tradition,‖ Numen 51 (2004): 468-512. Made available courtesy of Brill Academic Publishers: http://www.brill.nl/nu ***Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document Abstract: In 1995, as part of Bhaktapur, Nepal‘s Cow Procession, the new suburban neighborhood of Suryavinayak celebrated a ―forged‖ goat sacrifice. Forged religious practices seem enigmatic if one assumes that traditional practice consists only of the blind imitation of timeless structure. Yet, the sacrifice was not mechanical repetition; it could not be, because it was the first and only time it was celebrated. Rather, the religious performance was a conscious manipulation of available ―traditional‖ cultural logics that were strategically utilized during the Cow Procession‘s loose carnivalesque atmosphere to solve a contemporary problem—what can one do when one lives beyond the borders of religiously organized cities such as Bhaktapur? This paper argues that the ―forged‖ sacrifice was a means for this new neighborhood to operate together and improvise new mandalic space beyond the city‘s traditional cultic territory. Article: [E]very field anthropologist knows that no performance of a rite, however rigidly prescribed, is exactly the same as another performance.... Variable components make flexible the basic core of most rituals. ~Tambiah 1979:115 In Bhaktapur, Nepal around 5.30 P.M. on August 19, 1995, a castrated male goat was sacrificed to Suryavinayak, the local form of the god Ganesha.1 As part of the city‘s Cow Procession (nb.

  • Community Based Participatory Approach in Cultural Heritage Reconstruction: a Case Study of Kasthamandap
    Community based participatory approach in Cultural Heritage Reconstruction: A case study of Kasthamandap Rija Joshi1, Alina Tamrakar2, Binita Magaiya3 Abstract Kasthamandap, a centrally located monument in the old settlement of Kathmandu, is the 7th century structure, from which the name of Kathmandu valley originated. Kasthamandap was originally a public rest house and holds social, cultural and religious significance. The 25th April Gorkha earthquake completely collapsed the monument and it took a year before the government disclosed its reconstruction plan. However, the preparations were not satisfactory. The proposed plans severely contradicted with the traditional construction system. The introduction of modern materials such as steel and concrete made the aesthetic and artistic values of the monument to lose its original identity. The general public couldn’t accommodate with the idea of our national heritage being rebuilt with considerably newer materialistic ideas and a large public outcry against the proposal was seen. The necessity of reconstruction using traditional methods and materials with equal involvement of the community was realised to maintain identity, increase community belongingness and to connect new generation with the heritage. Therefore, a community initiative to rebuild Kasthamandap started with the involvement of diverse groups from the community. This paper discusses the observations, learning and achievements of community participation of the Kasthamandap rebuilding process. Further, the paper includes exploration of both tangible and intangible aspect and its benefits for overall heritage knowledge of Kathmandu valley. This paper presents an exemplary participatory heritage-making concept, which can be a learning for heritage reconstructions in future. Key words: Cultural Heritage, Community participation, Reconstruction, Conservation 1.

  • Indigenous Mathematical Concepts of Gopali Community from Their Cultural Perspective
    Indigenous Mathematical Concepts 1 INDIGENOUS MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS OF GOPALI COMMUNITY FROM THEIR CULTURAL PERSPECTIVE RAMCHANDRA DAHAL 2007 – BY RAMCHANDRA DAHAL This thesis is submitted to the Tribhuvan University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for The Master of Philosophy in Education. December, 2007 INDIGENOUS MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS OF GOPALI COMMUNITY . COMMUNITY GOPALI OF CONCEPTS MATHEMATICAL INDIGENOUS Indigenous Mathematical Concepts ii 2 An Abstract of the Thesis This study is focused on the perception of mathematical knowledge among illiterate Gopali people of Chitlang village of Makwanpur district. The Gopalis taken for the study are recognized as gwala/ sapu in the social community of Nepal. They have the identity of first ruler of ancient Nepal. So, the study concerned with ethno- mathematics this community is the appropriate one. The traditional practices followed by them were the main area of the study. Especially the ethno-mathematical practices, existing in Gopali people were the sources of the study. The study is focused on their measurement system, numerical system, and geometrical practices among them. Illiterate children, women and men were considered for in-depth study and common practices were achieved from the religious as well as cultural activities in the group participation. The participant observation and interview were two tools adopted for the collection of information. The study was guided by ethno-methodology as well as grounded theory. The study concluded that the ethno-mathematical practices has supported in preserving their cultural identity. Naturally, the ethno-mathematics and culture are interlinked. The perception of mathematics preserved by Gopalis differs from the school mathematics. There is discontinuity between traditional and modern measurement system but similar practices are found still among the illiterate group.

    BOOK REVIEWS 137 Keyes, Charles F.，ed” Ethnic Change. Seattle/London: University of Washington Press, 1981. Hardbound, 348 pp. Bibliographies. ISBN 0-295-95812-X. $20. The program in Comparative Studies in Ethnicity and Nationality (CSEN), at the School of International Studies, University of Washington, is conducting annual seminars on the rise and decline of ethnic identities among peoples around the world since 1972. The present volume grew out of such a seminar where the participants investi­ gated people who were forced to adapt to radical change be it the result of migration, state expansion and national integration or revolutionary changes in polity and economy. The papers are based on empirical data from Great Britain (among the Welsh), Canada (among the French-speaking Acadians), the United States (among the American Indians and the Asian-Americans), South Asia (among non-Brahmins in southern India), Southeast Asia (among Malays in multiethnic Malaysia, and the Sulu in the Philippines), North Africa (among the Jews in Morocco and Tunisia), the Middle East (among Arabs in Israel) and West Africa (among Creoles in Sierra Leone). The contributors are mainly anthropologists but there are also one economist, one political scientist and two sociologists among them. Charles F. Keyes, who is also the editor of this book, explores the dialectics and theoretical approaches to the study of ethnic change. He gives a cultural interpreta­ tion to ethnicity as a primordial characteristic of identity, to which he adds social mani­ pulation of ethnicity in the pursuit of objective interests. Ethnic change is seen as a dialectical process which begins when people experience a radical shift in their social circumstances.
